We are incredibly proud to have assisted Europol in a global operation against the notorious pro-Russian #hacktivist group #NoName057(16)
Over the years, NoName057(16) has carried out thousands of #DDoS attacks against websites of western organisations and national critical infrastructure , aiming to spread pro-Russian ideology
and stir up distrust and uncertainty in the western hemisphere
It's probably a good idea to do another #introduction since people change over time, ideally.
I'm haui. I help people & build things that help people. Big #foss enthusiast, #sysadmin by day and #hacktivist at night.
I think all people (and animals) are born equal and should stay that way.
I oppose #capitalism and embrace alternative systems. I dont care about #corporatedemocracy and manipulated "free speech".
I want thirst, hunger and homelessness gone, for everyone, by any means necessary.

Multiple #SocialMedia watchdogs confirmed that an #Iranian-aligned #hacktivist group called “313 Team” claimed responsibility for a Distributed Denial-of-Service (#DDoS) attack on Trump’s #TruthSocial platform just hours after the U.S. strikes. Truth Social went down shortly after 8 p.m. ET on Saturday — moments after #Trump announced the strikes on his account.
Pro-#Israel #hacktivist group claims responsibility for alleged Iranian #bank hack
Another prominent anti #Iran #hacktivist group Edaalate Ali posting longitude and latitude to what I would infer they hope or wish was a target for the bombings.
Anti #Iran #hackers Lab Dookhtegan posting this on their Telegram as the bombs fell on Iran, I’ll be checking in on various #hacktivist group reactions as the day goes on.
I’ve started writing the third & last section of my #blog on the Indian and Pakistani #hacktivist conflict which will detail from the invasion of #Ukraine by #Russia up to the current day & my god it has really crystallized in my mind just how crazy and mixed up things have gotten in #hacker circles
Backdoor implant discovered on PyPI posing as debugging utility
A sophisticated malicious package named 'dbgpkg' was detected on PyPI, masquerading as a Python debugging utility. The package implants a backdoor on systems, enabling execution of malicious code and data exfiltration. It uses function wrapping techniques to evade detection and is believed to be part of a larger campaign possibly linked to a hacktivist group known as Phoenix Hyena. The campaign also includes other packages like 'discordpydebug' and 'requestsdev'. The attackers' motivation appears to be geopolitical, potentially related to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The use of specific backdooring techniques and tools like Global Socket Toolkit indicates a high level of sophistication and an intent to establish long-term presence on compromised systems.

German supporter of Russian hacker group arrested (2/3)
I've been slacking on posting about #hacktivist activity lately but stumbled across this, from August, in which Cund-el Aksa, a Turkish Islamic fundamentalist #hacker group, #hacked an app called Ekomobil in Turkey and used that access to add bomb threats to screens on buses.
